Yes, it sounds as if the battery is holding its charge.
Take the fully charged battery and connect it into the car overnight, with everything switched off. After dark, go round and check for any lights (eg interior, boot) remaining on when the car doors are closed.
If the battery won't start the car the following morning, it's stray current drain - something somewhere is drawing current when it shouldn't.
This is independent of whether or not the alternator is working properly to charge the battery in situ, so as to replace the charge used to start the engine, and to supply the car's needs while running.
Once you've eliminated stray current drain, then you can move onto the second stage of whether or not the alternator is charging. The fact that you are getting 14V at idle tends to suggest that the charging circuit is working.
